Arabs have *nothing* compared to what the former Soviets had.
The Soviet Union of *30* years ago could could eat the middle east of today for lunch if they desired.
However, the Soviets always acted rationally in their rivalry with us.
We didn't realize that at the time, no one had a crystal ball.
Muslim fundamentalists, by comparison, don't care too much about human life or western civilization.
Russian leaders of the old days made these muslims seem civilized. Enter Stalin.
If you gave most Wahabbis the choice of 1 billion dead, but Islam wins the world, or the status quo, they would take the 1 billion dead.
They have no means, nor choice.
They would nuke New York or Chicago in a heartbeat if they could get their hands on a nuke.
But they have to settle for flying borrowed airplanes into civilian buildings. If they were really considered a *big* threat, Bush would have stopped the million man conga-line of people entering our country illegally, and implemented strong immigration reform on midnight of 911. This did not happen.
So they present a different threat, one that is militarily weak, but one which presents a more immediate and real threat of millions of dead Americans than the Soviets ever did.
Millions of dead American's? If they have the means, why did they have to borrow *our* airplanes and fly them into business offices?
This irrationality is what requires us to wipe them out entirely all over the globe, not just win battles, but destroy the movement.
Didn't happen, wont happen, as your government is putting out the welcome mat and is granting visas to mid easterners as fast as they can print them. Does this make sense to you?
Because someday, somewhere, they will slip one past the goalie, and then, more people than died in the Civil War will be gone in an instant.
LOL, If that were true, can you tell me why, to this day, anyone can enter this country with little effort? If this was true, why did we not implement *real* immigration control and immigration reform on 9-12-01? Why are our borders a complete utter disgrace and the joke of this planet, if not the terrorist themselves?
While good party leaders tell us it's impossible to secure our *own* damn borders and implement real immigration control, yet we are 8000 miles away in backasswasds Iraq trying to make them pillars of Democracy?
This pictured is all distorted. Even Ray Charles could see this, God rest his soul.
Thus my point in posting this article. The approach to the War on 'Terror' is PC to the max. We will not win with this limpwristed, worried attitude. Good post.
Joe, sounds like you are with the Lindbergh/Kennedy wing of the US (circa 1939). I agree with you that immigration policy is a joke, everything else you say makes you out to be a crank.
